Text

Consistent with past associations of SOB with sensation and novelty seeking [26]–[28], October to March borns are classified as high risk-conferring winter-borns relative to those born in the remainder of the year (not-winter-borns). Because other methods of parsing SOB have been employed in the literature, we include our raw dataset as Supplementary File S2 to allow further analysis by researchers who may want to examine hypotheses beyond the ones we consider here.
